Coach Talk

L.A. Golds
Good work deploying a starting crew that won by over 15 points this past week. We consider that to be a job well done. Let's tip our cap to the GM of We Run This Town, take this win in stride, and continue pushing forward to a fantasy championship.
We Run This Town
Trust me on this one (as a coach who's practically never NOT been on the hot seat)... You can always fall back on that scrappy Assistant Coaching job available at the local high school down the road! Keep pushing forward, We Run This Town!
